Oh yeah, there are certainly some positions where WFH is appropriate. My wife was in software development with a WFH job prior to covid and through it. Covid actually drove her to find a new job with a hybrid policy so she can do whatever she wants.

small company, so lack of advanced IT was a small part, but there’s just no substitute to actually walking through a project site with a contractor/customer.

It depends. We learned after 3 weeks of WFH that it was a disaster, and the year of zoom meetings with clients was torture. The day we got letters from the governor saying we were “essential employees” and exempt from WFH and all other covid restrictions was amazing.

No one expected it to continue at peak covid levels. It was a grand experiment and a lot was learned, now there are a lot more options than there was 5 years ago.

Thanks for the insight!

I’ve been toying with the idea of getting one of these but I like strategy games like HOI4, factorio, rimworld. Anyone have any experience with them on the Deck?
